Church of Sundial

The Sundial is the official church of the Kingdom of Dorborough power used to be so strong that they held authority over the entire kingdom through the Bishopric of Redcliffe. The Archbishop is the highest authority followed by clerics.

Belief system
The primary deity is Auran, who was believed to walk the world as a healer once. He is now believed by the church to take the form of the sun. Followers of the church are primarily concerned with aiding humanity, especially through the practice of healing magic. Other forms of magic are viewed as corrupt and vile by the Sundial, believing their source to be evil as it doesn't come from Auran.

Connection with the Light
Hundreds of years ago, when Auran was only just raised as a saint after his passing, there were some disagreements amongst the cardinals of the ecclesiastical council in the Church of the Light on the exact status of Auran. One cardinal by the name of Procopius even went so far to leave the church entirely, going off to a foreign country to form his own religion, as he believed Auran to be the Lord in human form. Rumors speculate that this is where the Sundial of Norenia came from.

Rituals
Followers of the Sundial perform three daily prayers:

Dawn: The devout starts completely prostrated, and slowly rises to a kneeling position, symbolizing the rising of the sun, uttering words of good will for the day to come. Noon: The devout stands proud with their hands over their head, chanting praise for the blessings Auran has bestowed. Dusk: The devout kneels to watch the sun go down, symbolizing his vigilance for the coming night and its dangers, knowing that the sun will rise again.
